Let's Chat! send us a message, question or a confession to unpack!
On this episode we were joined with relationship coach Aston Simmonds. Aston's raw account of navigating the complexities of her marriage post-childbirth resonates with a heartfelt truth many couples face – the choice between growth together or divorce. This episode peels back the layers of vulnerability, communication, and individual needs that are integral to fostering a resilient partnership.
Our conversation spans the often overlooked work that sustains love in long-term relationships, challenging the fairy-tale narrative society sells us. We share personal anecdotes, from the 'years of boring' that test our resolve to the 'happy dog hack' that keeps the spark alive during the dullest moments. We also examine the intricate dance of masculine and feminine energies, revealing how emotional communication and shared goals play a pivotal role in the modern relationship dynamic, including the way we feel love, connect, and play together.
Parenting, with its pressures and imperfections, also comes under the microscope. We discuss how different parenting styles and emotional needs can coexist within a family, and why expressing vulnerability can lead to stronger connections with our children. Navigating the waters of personal growth and the potential for separation, we conclude that while individual evolution can sometimes lead to parting ways, and that’s okay too, it's a natural and healthy facet of life's journey. We learnt so much in this chat with Aston - this episode isn't just a discussion; it's an invitation to embrace the messiness of love, life, and the connections that define us.
We will be having Aston on again soon so send us any questions you have or want to unpack!
